John was referring to two different posts of mine where he's sure he's
caught me in a contradiction. But, in one post I was talking about
individuals who totally dislike, even detest, modernist music. In the
other, my focus was individuals who also bad-mouth the work, the composer,
and the listener who claims to like it. I think that's a major difference.
Politicians would do well not to hire John.
John also referred to a posting I started more than a year ago, "The
All-Wrong CD Awards." That posting's main reason for being was to provide
humor, but I did write unkindly of certain artists. I'm not like that
anymore (sounds like Clint Eastwood in The Unforgiven). I've had my
personality-change operation and am a kind person now.
Mr. Smyth either has a great memory (I hardly remembered the posting),
went to Dave's Archives on a hunting expedition, or printed a copy of my
post when it was current. Whichever, I am impressed.
